Battery Backup for Dotsero Homes
Plan your Dotsero battery around the loads that matter most.
Battery Storage for Dotsero homes
Dotsero is at the edge of the valley's power network, so backup for the essentials is a common request. It's part of our Eagle County service area, alongside Vail and Kremmling.
We start with what has to keep running when the grid is down, then check the panel, placement and any solar you already have. Each Dotsero install carries our 10-year workmanship warranty.

Dotsero battery backup FAQs
Can you add a battery to my existing solar in Dotsero?

It can keep the furnace or boiler controls, circulation pumps and heat tape running, which is what prevents freeze damage. We size around those loads.
